Instructions
- Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted. This ensures it doesn’t burn. Alternatively, use the double boiler method for melting.
- Gently fold in the toasted almonds, reserving a few for sprinkling on top.
- Pour the mixture onto the lined baking sheet and use a spatula to spread it into an even layer of your desired thickness. Sprinkle the remaining almonds on top.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and let it chill until firm, approximately 20 minutes.
- Remove the bark from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature before cutting.
Notes
- Almonds: You can use slivered or sliced almonds too.
- Melt the Chocolate in Intervals: This is my #1 tip for making almond bark. When melting your chocolate in the microwave, heat it in 20- to 30-second intervals and stir frequently to prevent it from burning. Patience ensures a smooth melt without overheating.
- Nut Variations: Experiment with different nut varieties, like peanuts, cashews, pecans, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, or pumpkin seeds.
- No Microwave, No Problem: Use the double boiler method or a glass bowl over a saucepan with water. I left detailed instructions in the recipe card below!
- Melt Chocolate on Stove: To melt chocolate on the stovetop, create a makeshift double boiler by placing a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering, not boiling, water. Ensure the water doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir the chocolate in the bowl continuously until it’s smooth and entirely melted, maintaining a gentle heat to prevent overheating.
- Storing: At room temperature for 1 week, in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, freezer for up to 3 months.
